Powered by Green Energy Whilst your website’s footprint might be small, but with over 1.5 billion globally it all adds up making the internet responsible for around 3.7% of global greenhouse gas emissions. That’s pretty much the same as produced by the global airline industry. With our green hosting company Full Fat Hosting Ltd, you can be assured that your websites are stored on servers that avoid contributing to climate change. We’ve teamed up with renewable energy suppliers to ensure that our web hosting, cooling and network is powered by 100% renewable energy. Unlike other companies, your website isn’t bound to a single server and central to this is our autoscaling technology so basically when a website becomes busy, it can be allocated the resources of our entire hosting platform of multiple servers. Key to our . eco-friendly hosting is that this autoscaling also works in reverse in that if a website is no longer busy, it will take up fewer resources thus resulting less electricity used and ultimately less harmful emissions.
